The strength of concrete walls in building structures is significantly influenced by the quality of the formwork. KONDOTEC offers a variety of formwork products, including "Separator," "Confit," "Compone," "Ontai," "Stripping Agent Panel Release," and "Decorative Formwork," each with unique features.
One of our standout products is the "Katapanel," a plastic formwork that serves as an alternative to traditional plywood formwork. It is lighter, easy to assemble even for beginners, and can be reused multiple times, making it cost-effective. The Katapanel, made of slats and ribs, can be easily assembled using U-clips, adding to its convenience.
In recent years, construction sites have faced labor shortages due to an aging workforce and an increase in female workers. This has created a demand for lighter materials. KONDOTEC's manufacturing division has addressed this by lightening scaffolding chains used on construction sites and reducing the weight of construction bolts to less than 20KG per box. The KONDOTEC Group anticipates a decrease in new construction demand in the future. To prepare for this, the company offers a wide range of services, from residential housing to bridge construction.
KONDOTEC has factories in Hokkaido, Ibaraki, Shiga, and Fukuoka, all ISO14001 certified and dedicated to developing and producing their products. They focus on providing safe and convenient tools, such as slings and lifting devices, essential for construction sites and tailored to various purposes and environments.
